Full-HD editions of Moonscape, with onboard audio and subtitles, available for streaming and download

Moonscape is a free and freely downloadablehigh-definition documentary about the first manned Moon landing.

Funded and produced by space enthusiasts from all over the world, it shows the full, unedited Apollo 11 landing and moonwalk, using only the original TV and film footage and the original audio and photographs.

All this material has been scanned, digitized and restored from the best available sources. The live TV broadcast, the 16mm color film footage shot on the Moon and in Mission Control, and the Hasselblad 70mm color photographs taken by astronauts Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong, have been fully synchronized with the audio recordings (including the onboard and Mission Control recordings) and are presented in real time, as they happened, with full subtitles in English or Italian.

Moonscape is an ongoing, expanding project made possible by the donations and hard work of many people. If you like what you see and you want to help the project (and have your name in the end credits as a sponsor), please make a donation or offer your technical skills. There's still lots more work to do.
